I've seen and heard some crazy things when frontcountry camping. Does anyone have good stories to share about car camping?
Lost in the right direction.

I'm a people watcher and have seen some interesting characters in campgrounds. I've always wondered why no one has made a reality tv show.
I swear I once saw 2 prostitutes being dropped off at someone's site.
I was camping with my youngest once and there were hippies from Illinois on one side and some redneck Kentuckians across the road. Those two groups really hit off. The guys from Kentucky grilled hotdogs for the group from Illinois. They were fun to watch.
